When my temporary Internet files get too large, I like to delete many of the sites that I have visited, but not all of them. Is there a way to do this selectively, rather than deleting everything in the file?

Yes, you can definitely pick and choose which files to delete, if that's what you need. In Internet Explorer, choose Tools | Internet Options from the menu. On the General tab of the Internet Options dialog, you will see a rectangular panel in the center titled Temporary Internet Files; click the Settings button within this panel. In the resulting Settings dialog, click the View Files button. You can now see all the cached temporary Internet files and can go ahead and and delete all but the ones you wanted to save.
